(Get the code!)
Hi,
This affects me, although with slightly different symptoms to other reporters.
The current (18th Jan 2012) kernel & nvidia-current driver in precise doesn't work - after the kernel boots I'm stuck with a black screen. I can't switch to any of the terminals, or do anything other than hold down the power button to switch the machine off. If I start the same kernel in recovery mode then I can get to a single user shell, but when I try and start X I end up in the same place - locked out of the system entirely.
Adding acpi=off to the kernel parameters does not make any difference. Adding intel_iommi=off to the kernel parameters doesn't make any difference. Adding both makes no difference either.
